You can change the instance dir manually, no? You mean it's a bug that it doesn't detect your system drive and instead always uses C as the default, right? If so, yes, I agree, but likely it won't get fixed too soon as it's so minor. > And now the question: I want to make customized Zope installer.

The way the ZC installer is built uses http://cvs.zope.org/Packages/WinBuilders , and you could of course change this around to make it suit you. No howtos, but the code is there. - C _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
